Miranda Workman, office assistant at Tuscaloosa Metro Shelter, said the recent Home for the Holidays adoption event was a success. Thirty- two dogs and cats were adopt- ed. “We’re pretty low right now in animals that are up CW | Megan Smith for adoption,” Workman Dogs await new homes at the Tuscaloosa Metro Animal Shelter. said. “But, in a couple of days The center currently houses over 400 animals, and volunteers they’ll fill back up and we’ll are still needed at the shelter. have more up for adoption.” “I think it’s important to adopt animals, so you can issue the shelter has dealt “I think it was a good event cause of overcrowding. shelters, there are times when and of course, helping out by always have a friend,” said with, but events like Home because there are a lot of “I think the tornado has had pets have to be put down. adopting is the best thing to Jazzmin Franklin, a senior for the Holidays have assisted homeless animals, especially a prolonged effect because Adoption is one way to fix this do.” majoring in telecommunica- with the problem. at the metro shelter,” she said. usually our busiest months problem.
